Praise for This is How You Lose Her "Exhibits the potent blend of literary eloquence and street cred that earned him a Pulizer Prize…Diaz's prose is vulgar, brave, and poetic." O Magazine "Searing, sometimes hilarious, and always disarming … Readers will remember why everyone wants to write like DÃaz, bring him home, or both. Raw and honest, these stories pulsate with raspy ghetto hip-hop and the subtler yet more vital echo of the human heart." Publishers Weekly (starred) "DÃaz's standout fiction remains pinpoint, sinuous, gutsy, and imaginative…Each taut tale of unrequited and betrayed love and family crises is electric with passionate observations and off-the-charts emotional and social intelligence…Fast-paced, unflinching, complexly funny, street-talking tough, perfectly made, and deeply sensitive, DÃaz's gripping stories unveil lives shadowed by prejudice and poverty and bereft of reliable love and trust. These are precarious, unappreciated, precious lives in which intimacy is a lost art, masculinity a parody, and kindness, reason, and hope struggle to survive like seedlings in a war zone." Booklist (starred review) "DÃaz's third book is as stunning as its predecessors. These stories are hard and sad, but in DÃaz's hands they also crackle." Library Journal (starred) " Magnificent…an exuberant rendering of the driving rhythms and juicy Spanglish vocabulary of immigrant speech…sharply observed and morally challenging." Kirkus, Praise for This is How You Lose Her "Searing, sometimes hilarious, and always disarming … Readers will remember why everyone wants to write like DÃaz, bring him home, or both. Raw and honest, these stories pulsate with raspy ghetto hip-hop and the subtler yet more vital echo of the human heart."

Library Journal (starred), Praise for This is How You Lose Her "Exhibits the potent blend of literary eloquence and street cred that earned him a Pulitzer Prize…Diaz's prose is vulgar, brave, and poetic." O Magazine "Ribald, streetwise, and stunningly moving-a testament, like most of his work, to the yearning, clumsy ways young men come of age." - Vogue "Searing, sometimes hilarious, and always disarming … Readers will remember why everyone wants to write like DÃaz, bring him home, or both. Raw and honest, these stories pulsate with raspy ghetto hip-hop and the subtler yet more vital echo of the human heart."

Library Journal (starred) " Magnificent…an exuberant rendering of the driving rhythms and juicy Spanglish vocabulary of immigrant speech…sharply observed and morally challenging." Kirkus "A beautifully stirring look at ruined relationships and lost love-and a more than worthy follow-up to [Diaz's] 2007 Pulitzer winner, The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao ."- BookPage, PRAISE FOR DROWN "Spare, tense, powerful...searing snapshots from the rocky, dangerous road that leads his characters to adulthood...His stories are so engaging, so compulsively readable, that we have to make ourselves pause to admire his sly lyricism, nervy assurance, and clam command of his craft." ---Francine Prose, Elle "DÃaz deserves to be singled out for the distinctiveness and caliber of his voice, and for his ability to sum up a range of cultural and cross-cultural experiences in a few sharp images...These 10 finely achieved short stories reveal a writer who will still have something to say after he has used up his own youthful experiences and heartaches"--- The Philadelphia Inquirer "Like Raymond Carver, DÃaz transfigures disorder and disorientation with a rigorous sense of form...[He] wrings the heart with finely calibrated restraint."--- The New York Times Book Review "Riveting...Captures the bleak peripheral existence of suburban people of color in groundbreaking fashion." --- Village Voice "Talent this big will always make noise...DÃaz has the dispassionate eye of a journalist and the tongue of a poet." -- -Newsweek "Graceful and raw and painful and smart ... The pages turn and all of a sudden you''''re done and you want more." -- Boston Globe "This stunning collection of stories is...another front-line report on the ambivalent promise of the American Dream." -- San Francisco Chronicle PRAISE FOR THE BRIEF WONDROUS LIFE OF OSCAR WAO "An extraordinarily vibrant book that''''s fuled by adrenaline-powered prose...[Junot DÃaz has] written a book that decisively establishes him as one of contemporary fiction''''s most distinctive and irresistible new voices." --- Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "Astoundingly great." --- Time "Terrific...High-energy...A joy to read, and every bit as exhilarating to re-read." --- Entertainment Weekly "Superb, deliciously casual and vibrant, shot through with wit and insight. The great achievemet of The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao is DÃaz''''s ability to balance an intimate multigenerational story of familial tragedy...The past and present remain equally in focus, equally immediate, and DÃaz''''s acrobatic prose toggles artfully between realities, keeping us entralled with all." --- The Boston Globe "Panoramic and yet achingly personal. It''''s impossible to categorize, which is a good thing. DÃaz''''s novel is a hell of a book. It doesn''''t care about categories." --- Los Angeles Times " DÃaz''''s writing is unruly, manic, seductive...In DÃaz''''s landscape we are all the same, victims of a history and a present that doesn''''t just bleed together but stew. Often in hilarity. Mostly in heartbreak." --- Esquire " DÃaz made us wait eleven years for this first novel and boom it's over just like that. It's not a bad gambit, to always leave your audience wanting more. So brief and wondrous, this life of Oscar. Wow." The Washington Post Book World "Genius…a story of the American experience that is giddily glorious and hauntingly horrific. And what a voice Yunior has. His narration is a triumph of style and wit... He has produced is a kick-ass (and truly, that is the just word for it) work of modern fiction all make The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao something exceedingly rare: a book in which a new America can recognize itself, but so can everyone else." San Francisco Chronicle, Praise for This is How You Lose Her "DÃaz's standout fiction remains pinpoint, sinuous, gutsy, and imaginative…Each taut tale of unrequited and betrayed love and family crises is electric with passionate observations and off-the-charts emotional and social intelligence…Fast-paced, unflinching, complexly funny, street-talking tough, perfectly made, and deeply sensitive, DÃaz's gripping stories unveil lives shadowed by prejudice and poverty and bereft of reliable love and trust. These are precarious, unappreciated, precious lives in which intimacy is a lost art, masculinity a parody, and kindness, reason, and hope struggle to survive like seedlings in a war zone." Booklist (starred review), Praise for Junot Díaz "One of contemporary fiction's most distinctive and irresistible voices." --- Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "Talent this big will always make noise." - Newsweek "Graceful and raw and painful and smart. . . . The pages turn and all of a sudden you're done and you want more." - The Boston Globe "Like Raymond Carver, Díaz transfigures disorder and disorientation with a rigorous sense of form. . . . [He] wrings the heart with finely calibrated restraint." - The New York Times Book Review

- a***9 (75)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufI would DEFINITELY purchase from this seller again. Seller might want to add more pics and better description because there was a tear on the back dust jacket that wasn’t mentioned. Could’ve happened during shipping so I’m not holding it against the seller. I fixed with tape on the inside of jacket. No harm/no foul. The seller had a more than generous price for this book + free shipping. NO complaints. Hence, I would purchase from this seller again without hesitation.
